I get almost an extra inch of space before each print



Problem: During the initial few days of using my new iPF5000 I changed a setting which results in the roll advancing the paper about half an inch before printing starts. This results in an uncentered print. How can I fix this?

Solution: Probably the setting you changed is "Near End Roll Margin". It can be changed either:

  1. In the PS plugin - Main Tab, click on the Set button right under Media Type. The setting is called "Roll Paper Margin for Safety". I leave mine set to printer default.
  2. In the Printer Driver, similar to #1 above
  3. Media Detail Setting on a particular Media Type - set from Printer LCD. See Menu Functions
